Xin Yao conjured an ice sword in her hand, which, carrying a murderous aura, attacked Qing Ling. Qing Ling frantically plucked the strings of her zither to defend against this fatal blow.
Bang!
The sudden backlash left Xin Yao with no way to avoid it. She staggered back a few steps, her eyes wide, "It's you."
"Fairy Xin Yao, I'm sorry, I can't let you hurt her."
Zi Yu said coldly.
Xin Yao felt a nameless rage rising in her heart. No wonder Zi Yu had disappeared after returning from Yue Zhu; it turned out she had also come to the mortal realm.
She had known all along that Ziyu had been following her in the shadows, ostensibly to protect her, but actually to monitor her. She understood this in her heart, but she still convinced herself countless times that he was doing this for her own good.
The murderous intent in Xin Yao's eyes had vanished. She smiled and said to Zi Yu, "Zi Yu, no wonder I haven't seen you around for a while. So you've been here on a mission."
As Xin Yao spoke, her gaze lingered on Qing Ling. Without the Venerable One's order, Zi Yu wouldn't be here, and she was even protecting this brat. Just who was this brat?
"Ziyu, where is His Majesty? I have something important to discuss with him."
Xin Yao put on an innocent and harmless appearance, but Zi Yu didn't buy it. Her voice remained as cold as ever, "Fairy Xin Yao has probably come to the wrong place. The Venerable One you mentioned is not here."
"Ziyu, you've misunderstood me. My feigned friendship with Yuezhu was merely a temporary measure, not out of genuine feeling. Everything I did was for His Majesty's sake..."
Zi Yu interrupted her, "Fairy Xin Yao, you should save these words for the Venerable One. There's no need to explain anything to Zi Yu."
What does "purple rain" mean? Could it be that His Majesty is here?
She had been there for so long, but the Venerable One hadn't shown up. Perhaps he wasn't even here. That would make things much easier. Xin Yao's pent-up anger exploded in an instant.
"Third Master Feng, Fourth Master Feng, perhaps we can cooperate again..."
Xin Yao looked at the two people not far away and said, Zi Yu narrowed her eyes and looked at Xin Yao, Hehehe, are you not pretending anymore?
Feng Luo and Feng Yan came up behind Xin Yao.
A roar like a dragon's cry.
A silver-white dragon emerged from the void, its massive tail sweeping towards the Spirit Venerables. Caught off guard, the Spirit Venerables were struck, creating an opening. Taking advantage of this, Ji Jiuying attacked Qingling's side.
Ling Xiao appeared next to Ji Jiuying in human form.
Xin Yao, Feng Luo, Feng Yan, and more than twenty Spirit Venerables surrounded them.
“Ziyu, I don’t want to kill them all, but it’s not too late for you to regret it now. It’s not worth losing your life for these mortals.”
Xin Yao simply stopped pretending and said with a smile.
"Protecting ordinary people is much better than protecting ingrates."
Zi Yu snorted coldly, and the word "ungrateful wretch" brought Xin Yao's anger to its peak. "You're asking for death."
Xin Yao, filled with murderous intent, charged towards Zi Yu.
Ji Jiuying released Hei Xiangling and Yan Ye, and a battle was about to break out, with the scene in complete chaos.
At this moment.
"Charge!"
A roar came from the entrance of Star Academy.
"Father, they are disciples from the academy; they've returned."
Shen Miaoqing said excitedly. Just as she was distracted, a Spirit King attacked her from behind, and Shen Miaoqing was sent flying.
"Qing'er."
Shen Qingqiu roared, but with two Spirit Saints entangled with him, he could only watch helplessly as Shen Miaoqing was ambushed by that person.
The expected pain did not come. A figure in blue quickly caught Shen Miaoqing and landed her steadily on the ground.
"Miaoqing, are you alright?"
Shen Miaoqing, still shaken, steadied herself and took out a pill. "Yan Nanzhi, what are you doing here?"
Since their last parting, Yan Nanzhi has not returned to the academy.
"Upon hearing about what happened at the academy, they organized for them to return and help."
"Yan Nanzhi, watch your back."
A gasp snapped him back to reality. The two men stood back to back, dealing with the enemies around them.
At the same time, two groups of people suddenly appeared from Star Academy. They looked like assassins and rushed into the crowd without saying a word. One group went towards Wen Longting and Wen Longxiu, and the other group went towards Ji Jiuying. For a moment, it was impossible to tell whether they were friends or foes.
Xin Yao was surprised that Ji Jiuying possessed divine fire, and her killing intent intensified. She turned around and switched positions with Feng Luo to confront Ji Jiuying. At the same time, her Red Lotus Karmic Fire also transformed into human form and began fighting Yan Ye, her moves seemingly designed to devour him.
Xin Yao concentrated all her spiritual power into the weapon in her hand, her eyes filled with killing intent, and launched a fierce attack on Ji Jiuying. Ji Jiuying narrowed her eyes, gripped the Night tightly, and met the attack head-on.
Xin Yao's moves were all deadly, and Ji Jiuying was struggling to keep up. Xin Yao's speed was increasing, and Ji Jiuying had to retreat repeatedly. Xin Yao pressed forward step by step, with a disdainful look on her face. She sneered inwardly, thinking, "She doesn't even deserve to dream about the Venerable One."
Feng Luo glanced at the two of them, her brows furrowing slightly.
Xin Yao flashed above Ji Jiuying and delivered a deadly blow. Ji Jiuying was shocked. The divine weapon, the Blazing Sun Bow, appeared in her hand, held it horizontally in front of her chest, and leaned back.
Clang.
The sound of divine weapons clashing created sound waves that spread outwards in a circular pattern. Some people with lower cultivation levels had their cochleas shattered, and blood gushed out.
Xin Yao stared wide-eyed at the divine artifact in Ji Jiuying's hand, her eyes filled with greed. She hadn't expected that Ji Jiuying would actually possess such a artifact, and she figured that the twin lotus blossoms must be real too.
Xin Yao was above, and Ji Jiuying was below, their white and red powers constantly clashing against each other.
"Your Excellency is not someone a mortal like you can touch. Blame yourself for being too greedy."
Xin Yao sneered and increased the pressure on her hand.
She swallowed the metallic taste rising in her throat, and Ji Jiuying activated the fifth level of the Divine Control Technique, her eyes gradually turning red. Ji Jiuying sneered, "Is that so? This old lady has already defiled his entire body."
At that moment, Xin Yao's eyes fell on the Phoenix Frost Bracelet on Ji Jiu's wrist, and it exploded in her mind with a bang.
Phoenix Frost Bracelet!
The Venerable One actually gave the Phoenix Frost Bracelet to the woman in front of her. She knew very well what the Phoenix Frost Bracelet represented, and the killing intent in her eyes was almost insane.
Xin Yao's chest heaved violently with anger, her face contorted with rage, her eyes bloodshot as she stared at Ji Jiuying, "I'll kill you."
Bang!
Ji Jiuying's pupil technique was interrupted, and she was also slammed to the ground from mid-air by Xin Yao's burst of power. Intense pain shot through her brain, and she coughed up a mouthful of blood. The ground cracked in all directions like a spider web.
However, before she could catch her breath for even half a second, a deadly attack came from the smoke, incredibly fast.
"Miss."
"Owner."
"Xiao Jiu".
Her nimble hands trembled incessantly, her eyes shimmering with black mist, and the musical notes transformed into eerie black blades that fiercely attacked Xin Yao.
Yan Ye was entangled by the Red Lotus Karmic Fire. In anger, he transformed into his true form and became entangled with the Red Lotus Karmic Fire.
Hei Xiangling flung Feng Yan away with a palm strike, then flashed in front of Ji Jiuying, catching Xin Yao's fatal blow with her palm.
"You brat, get out of the way!"
At this moment, Feng Luo also realized that Xin Yao had clearly intended to kill Ji Jiu Ying!
